Professional Development Afternoon

All students will be dismissed at 12:20 p.m. this Friday, February 17, due to the teachers’ professional development afternoon. The school buses will leave PACA at 12:55 p.m. Students in Pre-K – 12th grade will eat lunch on campus before dismissal.
 

Candlelight Dinner

On February 18, the junior class will host the annual Candlelight Dinner. This year's theme is a Hawaiian Luau. Candlelight is an elegant evening of dining and entertainment for middle school and high school students, parents, and teachers. A limited number of tickets are on sale for R$ 60.
 

AP Exams

Any high school student that wishes to take an AP exam for a class that is not offered at PACA, must contact Mrs. Zuercher, and inform her of the exam you would like to take by March 1.  Exams will be ordered during the month of March, and students will not be able to request exams after the ordering deadline.


Student ID Card – Half Price Tickets

According to Federal Decree 8537  (http://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/_Ato2015-2018/2015/Decreto/D8537.htm), in order for a student to have the right to the benefit of half-price tickets at cultural and sporting events, he/she must present a government approved student ID card, known as  Carteira de Identificação Estudantil (CIE). This is required at the moment of the purchase of tickets and at the entrance of the venue where the event will be held. In order to be considered valid, the CIE must have been issued by student unions, such UNE, Ubes or UMES. Parents, to find out more about the official student ID card that allows your child to pay half price at the movies, theater, etc., and how to request a CIE, visit the websites for UNE, Ubes or SPTrans (it is possible to request a public bus card – Bilhete Único – associated with the official student ID card benefits). The International Student Identity Card – ISIC, issued by STB, is not valid for the half price benefit. (https://www.carteiradoestudante.com.br/duvidas). UMES, the secondary students’ union, left some application forms for their government approved student ID card in the main office; their card costs R$ 25. If you are interested, please pick up an application with Marcia Teixeira or Annelise Liu by next Friday.
